@liaizon 3 hours is hard to spare these days. Maybe we can pick away at them as bedtime podcasts, at the risk of falling asleep...
I'll read more of that text, though. I can speed-read to some extent, at least much faster than listening to somebody talk.
@liaizon
Agreed. It would also be interesting to tease out some of the details in Fedi-related systems, as Stafford Beer does in his own systems.
That would be a longer conversation...
Thanks for the tip, @liaizon

I read more of the part you quoted down-thread, about systems needing some centralized and some decentralized features. And I agree.
I have been pushing decentralization in several recent Fedi threads, but that's situational.
We started developing economic network software centralized, and then discovered the needs for network members to have their own agency. so some decent. But also to be coordinated, so some cent.

> Would you be open to the idea of Mastodon, Lemmy, Pixelfed, and other Fediverse platforms adopting the AT protocol in order to federate with it?
Hell no. Let them adopt AP which is a standard.
